It is one of those new things that now and then pop up in the amusement line and throws everybody into real, generous, hearty laughter. There is fun in it from beginning to end, and the fun is mainly new.
 EDWIN BOOTH.
 At the Hyperion Theater next Wednesday evening Edwin Booth, the eminent trage- dian, will present "Richelieu." It is not without warrant that the supporting compa- ny are said to be equal to their duties. They are men and women who have had expert ence in the labor required, and in that expe- rience have demonstrated their merit. It is the testimony of all the commentators upon the great actors work during this season that it is finer, more vivid, more scholarly and more impressive than ever before. It is charged with vigor, an ambition, grasp of the potentialities of tragedy that Mir. Booth in his worst days seems to have for gotten. The sale of reserved seats for the performance here will open at Loomis' Tenn pie of Music this morning at g o'clock. No one person will be allowed to purchase more than ten tickets.
